Legally blind man bowls perfect 300

"It's a great sport. It's something the young, the old and the handicapped can do," Davis said Thursday. "I guess I count as the old and handicapped."

Davis has suffered from macular degeneration, a chronic eye disease, for the last decade. He can't see out of his left eye and has limited peripheral vision in his right eye. Davis' perfect game came at a roll-off to conclude the league season at a four-lane alley in the northwest Iowa community of about 1,800 people.

Davis, who stands 5 feet 8 inches and weighs just 115 pounds, said the only time he sees the ball is when he picks it up, but he can usually tell how his throw went by sound. All 12 tosses sounded great.
